•
|
Level 1: Inputs are quoted market prices in
active markets for identical assets or liabilities (these are observable
market inputs).
|
•
|
Level 2: Inputs are inputs other than quoted
prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or
liability (includes quoted market prices for similar assets or identical
or similar assets in markets in which there are few transactions, prices
that are not current or vary
substantially).
|
•
|
Level 3: Inputs are unobservable inputs that
reflect the entity’s own assumptions in pricing the asset or liability
(used when little or no market data is
available).

Cash and cash equivalents,
totaling $64,523,771, consists primarily of money
market funds and
checking accounts for
which we determine fair value through quoted market
prices.
|
|
(2)
|
Marketable securities consist of
corporate floating rate notes for which we
determine fair value through quoted market prices. Marketable securities also consist of two municipal auction
rate securities (“ARS”) issued by the District of Columbia. Typically, the fair value of ARS
investments approximates par value due to the frequent resets through the
auction process. Due to recent events in credit markets, the
auction events, which historically have provided liquidity for these
securities, have been unsuccessful. The result of a failed
auction is that these ARS holdings will continue to pay interest in
accordance with their terms at each respective auction date; however,
liquidity of the securities will be limited until there is a successful
auction, the issuer redeems the securities, the securities mature or until
such time as other markets for these ARS holdings develop. For each of our
ARS, we evaluate the risks related to the structure, collateral and
liquidity of the investment, and forecast the probability of issuer
default, auction failure and a successful auction at par, or a redemption
at par, for each future auction period. Temporary impairment
charges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income, whereas
other-than-temporary impairment charges are recorded in our statement of
operations. The Company used a discounted cash flow model to
determine the estimated fair value of its investment in ARS as of December
31, 2008. The assumptions used in preparing the discounted cash
flow model include estimates for interest rate, timing and amount of cash
flows and expected holding period of ARS. Based upon this
assessment of fair value, the Company determined there was a decline in
the fair value of its ARS investments of $290,000, which was deemed
temporary and was included within accumulated other comprehensive income
for the year ended December 31,
2008.
